80%Vila Gabriela

Very clean pension in a quiet residential area run by very nice couple. We had an early flight and the Vila Gabriela was very convenient to the airport and they offered very reasonable drop off service. Would stay again.

Its like a granny's house. It is really hard to find, it is not clean, and not convenient to the airport. Highly recommend on staying in something a bit worth something. Pass up breakfast unless your starving. Thanks, please consider, because as long as its like that i won't be staying there!

Its not a backpackers hostel at all... Its a small pension in the middle of nowhere. Really far from Bucharest town and not close enough to the airport to get there without bus or taxi. But its a quiet and save location with friendly staff!

The owners were really friendly and offered airport transfers for a small amount. It was really close to both airports which was good for us but don't go if you want it to be your main base in Bucharest.

Very safe and cosy hostel with a friendly owner who is happy to provide maps and information. Note that it is situated about a 20 min bus ride from the city, luckily they run pretty regularly and cost 7 lei return but the last one leaves town at 10.30pm so not ideal if you want to go out in the...

The owners were extremely pleasant and helpful with regards to arranging and payment of taxis, directions, and even phone calls to arrange bookings for our next night in Brasov.

I've stayed here 3 times and I have to say, the hospitality is wonderful :) It's a great location if you want to be close to the airport. It's out of Buchurst but it's easy enough to get to the city. The staff go out of their way for you and they're very friendly.

The place is not bad the hosts are helpful without intrusion. There is a good restraunt bar down the road. It is about 16km from the centre of Bucharest. But there is an express bus into town the doesnt cost much.

It is 10 miles out of Bucharest, but worth the bus travel. It took roughly twenty minutes to get into the centre. Very quaint hostel, with nice rooms. Staff were really nice and very friendly, speaking excellent english.

Very friendly owners and more than willing to talk about any (Romanian) thing. Highly recommended to anyone who is willing to travel in to Romania. Thanks again!
